Professional Experience
Prior to coming to Ball State, Dr. Ogle completed a postdoctoral fellowship with Dr. Lisa Ruble (PI) where she assisted with a NIH-funded federal grant to develop and test a training package for community-based consultants to implement COMPASS and an IES-funded federal grant to develop and test a special education teacher burnout intervention called BREATHE-EASE Goals.
While in her Ph.D. at Indiana University, she taught and supervised preservice general education and special education teachers in the alternative secondary licensure program, a Community of Teachers. She also conducted research related to augmentative and alternative communication under the mentorship of Dr. Erna Alant. In her master's program, she worked closely under the mentorship of Dr. Tom Buggey at Siskin Children’s Institute in Chattanooga, TN in his research on video self-modeling interventions for children with autism and Down syndrome. Early in her career, she worked as a behavioral interventionist for young children with autism under the supervision of a board-certified behavioral analyst, respite care provider, psychometrist, and an assistant to a Social Security Disability representative who helped claimants with various disabilities obtain Social Security Disability benefits.
